Hi
I have a 96 Discovery 300 TDI

This morning i noticed water dripping from the front bumper, and i put it down to the frost defrosting off the car.

However this is not the case, the water was coming from the driver side headlight washer nozzle

My question is
Would this be a faulty non return valve ( i am guessing it wouldnt be this as the passenger side one is not leaking )

Or would i need to replace the headlight washer nozzle ?

Any help would be appreciated

Carl

i would guess the rubber hose may well be split you mite be lucky and chop the broken bit off and re-attact it

Thanks for your reply, i will check it in the morning

The water did seem to be coming from the top of the nozzle though ??

Anyone else got ideas i can check aswell

Let me know when you find out Carl, mine has done it intermittently for all the years I have had it

Robint is right about the pipe or it could be that ice in the nozzle had formed and was thawing out causing a 'leak' check you have enough additive in your washer fluid to stop it freezing.
